Engineers are often stereotyped as being introverts. Working on a design project, this can be a strength, but when it comes to business development--which is often critical to moving up in the firm--they may struggle.

Monica Parkin, author of Overcoming Awkward, came on the program to talk about how introverted people can change their approach to social situations--both on the job and in their community.

A successful businessperson and speaker, Parkin offers a step-by-step process by which people can overcome their innate shyness and improve their business development skills.
